The funniest part about Baby You Can Drive My Car is that it was just about sex and there was no car, either.

I love them for the same reasons I love The Ramones. They made catchy, fun tunes that had an edge but they didn't take themselves too seriously. They had very NYC-style humor. They both agreed their music wasn't about anger but fun.

Will Smith came across his rap persona in a similar way to the Beasties - while being angry and street was undeniably the sound at the time, both Will and the Beastie Boys chose to embrace the real beauty of hip-hop music, which is the sincerity. Will Smith told charming, silly, childish stories in a charming, silly, childish way, and he went on tour with Public "Motherfucking" Enemy. The Beastie Boys decided to be the best kinds of class clowns - the guys whose jokes and sarcasm comes with a weight and a consideration of the world around them, because that's who they were as people. Don't forget that their biggest hit, "Fight For Your Right (To Party)" was a sarcastic teardown of hard-partying 80's bro culture that they refused to play live from 1987 onward, once it became apparent that most people weren't in on the joke.

The Beastie Boys are the only white rappers I have ever liked. They knew the true roots of the music (JAMES BROWN) and knew how to stay true to a genre of music but most importantly make hit records while staying true to the genre. A lot of people will either make hits or stay true to the genre but it's essential to do both.

*I was blessed to be a 90’s teen and see the Beastie Boys three times.* One of which was at one of the Lollapalooza festivals. They were one of the first artists I saw that were very politically and socially conscious. They moved away from the type of content they did in the very early days and evolved. It was cool getting to see them live.
